I love, love, love Italian food! If you do too, have you discovered the cookbooks of Domenica Marchetti? If you haven’t yet, you will.
Cooks&Books&Recipes guest cook Jean, of Lemons & Anchovies, reviewed Domenica’s cookbook The Glorious Pasta of Italy. We published the recipe for Gemelli with Fresh Herbs and Chopped Olives”, with Jean’s comments.
Domenica’s other Italian cookbooks are Big Night In: More Than 100 Wonderful Recipes for Feeding Family and Friends Italian-Style, The Glorious Soups and Stews of Italy, and another absolutely gorgeous book, which I’ll be sending to one reader of Cooks&Books&Recipes (assuming you enter and win the giveaway, of course):
Rustic Italian: Simple, Authentic Recipes for Everyday Cooking, produced by Williams-Sonoma and published by Weldon Owen, is simply stunning (photos by Maren Caruso). Here are a few thoughts on the book:
- * Olga at Mango & Tomato and Cecilia at One Vanilla Bean on Pistachio Gelato with Shaved Chocolate
* Heather, aka Farm Girl Gourmet, on Beet Gratin with Fontina and Walnuts
* Faye Levy at The Jerusalem Post on eating your greens
UPDATE: Domenica Marchetti has graciously offered to send a signed book plate to the winner too!
Notes: There are six ways to enter the giveaway, but it’s not necessary to do all six entries. Choose whichever one(s) you like, and you’ll be entered in the giveaway. Giveaway ends at midnight (EST) on Sunday, January 13, 2013.
